Directions

1Crack three large eggs into a clear measuring cup.
2Measure the exact same amount of all-purpose flour as the eggs.
3Measure the exact same amount of 1% or 2% milk as the eggs.
4Pour the eggs into a bowl.
5Add the flour to the eggs in the bowl.
6Whisk the eggs and flour until smooth to prevent lumps.
7Pour the milk into the egg and flour mixture.
8Whisk the batter again until it is a little looser than whipped cream, smooth, and pourable, but not too thick.
9If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk; if it's too loose, add a touch more flour, little bits at a time.
10Pour the batter into a pourable container.
11Rest the batter on the counter for two hours, or stick it in the fridge overnight if preparing ahead.
12Right before baking, add a good pinch of salt and whisk it one more time.
13Set your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and make sure the convection fan is off.
14Place an empty muffin pan on a quarter sheet tray.
15Place the muffin pan into the oven for about 10 minutes to heat up.
16Carefully pull the hot muffin pan out of the oven.
17Add about two tablespoons of oil or beef drippings into each cup of the hot muffin pan.
18Put the muffin pan back into the oven and cook for another 10 minutes until the oil is shimmering or even lightly smoking.
19Move quickly: pull the pan out of the oven.
20Fill each cup halfway to two-thirds full with your batter.
21If drops of batter get on the edges, wipe them off.
22Place the muffin pan right back into the oven immediately.
23Bake in the oven at 450 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 to 12 minutes until they are tall and puffed.
24Drop the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and let them cook for another 10 to 12 minutes.
25Once done, immediately transfer them onto a cooling rack to keep the bottom nice and crisp.

Tips

Use 1% or 2% milk to prevent hindering the rise of the Yorkshires.
Rest the batter for 2 hours at room temperature, or overnight in the fridge.
Ensure the convection fan is off as it can mess with the rise of the puddings.
The oil must be ripping hot; if it's not, the puddings won't rise.
Move quickly when pouring the batter into the hot oil.
Wipe off any batter drops on the edges of the muffin pan to prevent them from sticking and stopping the puddings from rising.
Do not open the oven door while the puddings are baking, as the heat will escape and they will collapse.
